Wilde Defends Beach Red Against Catholic Censor Rating
Cornel Wilde, Catholic and star of Beach Red, disputes a C rating by the Catholic Office of Motion Pictures amid support from the Motion Picture Producers Association. He argues the war film portrays thoughts and emotions of soldiers, not prurience, and criticizes medieval censorship while noting industry input should guide rules. Wilde says the film argues against war and that he lacks major studio backing.
